Apple will host major event at Brooklyn Academy of Music

A month after its annual iPhone keynote, Apple today has confirmed an upcoming October 30 event that is scheduled to be held in Brooklyn. This time around, the event is slated to take place on October 30 at the Howard Gilman Opera House in NY. From the looks of it, all invitations feature a different design of the Apple logo, but its tagline "There's more in the making" is the same across the board. In addition, it is also rumoured that the tablet will be the first of its kind to switch over from Apple's proprietary Lightning port to the universal USB Type-C port.

Rumours have been rife for months that Apple is planning to refresh its iPad and Apple Pencil lineup with new Pro machines expected to be unveiled.
